Brakes

[FurBall]

Recently, my brakes have been way to powerful. When I am going 80 with a trailer and hit the brakes even a little bit, I stop in about a second. The trailer brakes are the same way. The brake sensitivity is all the way down but it didn't help much, and it is the same in other trucks I drive. Anybody know how to fix this?

BTW I use a steering wheel not keyboard.

I use a physics mod to give better braking and overall better driving experience. It is in the workshop.

I'd be checking your wheel settings. I know with some steering wheels you can adjust the curve that governs how much brake pressure is applied for how far you push the pedal.
Don't let mods be the first solution. Try other stuff first.

Thank you. This fixed the problem.

Check breaking intensity.

Did you not read that it was as low as possible?

Yes I did. Aren't sensitivity and intensity two different options though?

The only settings in game are:

Brake axis
Brake axis deadzone
Brake axis mode


There are no settings for sensitivity or intensity. Some wheels have a control panel which will give adjustments but they can be confusing and when a mod can do what is required, why not use it.

Under gameplay, truck settings, is braking intensity. This is the setting I used to control the strength of the brakes.

Live and learn. I had seen it there and had never bothered with it. If it works then that is good info for people, I hadn't taken any notice of it and I would think I am not the only one. However, I never had any problem so that is my excuse.

I use a physics mod because of the way it improves all aspects of driving and not only braking. Nothing better than hauling an extremely heavy trailer mod and needing to brake early to stop from blowing right through an intersection
